About

I’m Wenran Li, an illustration-focused artist currently studying at the University of Edinburgh, where I’m developing my skills in creating expressive artwork and strong visual concepts. My background combines traditional Chinese painting with modern illustration practice, and I enjoy translating ideas into prints, ink-and-watercolor styles, and polished digital pieces.

Alongside my studies, I’ve gained hands-on experience through gallery internships and art/curation support, learning how to organize exhibitions thoughtfully and how to present artwork clearly. I also volunteer and lead student initiatives, which strengthened my communication and teamwork—skills I bring into my creative process, from problem-solving in project planning to turning feedback into better artworks.
